Chill-out this September at the TCS&D show

Bendi will be demonstrating the benefits of its Arctic articulated forklift with full cold store cab

Among the exhibitors is the VMS Group, a leading specialist in fleet management, exhibiting at the show for the first time. The company offers a range of solutions including contract hire, vehicle maintenance, accident management and rental solutions. The VMS stands will feature experts from VMS and one of its refrigerated vehicles.

Coolertech will be displaying three Mercedes-Benz vehicles – all converted at Coolertech’s UK production facilities. Two will be insulated panel vans – a Sprinter MWB high-roof van built to frozen specification, and a Citan chilled conversion. The third will be a 3500kg Sprinter MWB 3.5m insulated box body model, built for a variable-temperature, rental operation.

And Bendi, a supplier of articulated forklift trucks, will be demonstrating its Arctic model, which is equipped with complete with a full cold store cab, on stand D1.

With the cost of storing pallets in a cold store being up to three times more than in an ambient warehouse, reductions in the space needed can significantly reduce costs. The new Bendi Arctic can allow aisle reductions of up to 50%. The Arctic has a stand-alone cab, which connected to the chassis by rubber cab suspension and fly-by-wire controls, and offers all-round vision.

Other exhibitors include BPW, IMS, Phase Change Material Products, SSI Schaefer and Jungheinrich.

The show will also stage the Temperature Controlled Storage & Distribution 2013 Awards Dinner, which will take place at the end of the first day of the show in the Cambridge Suite of Peterborough Arena.
